Console ID? Toobs?

At first I was getting a strong early '60s RCA vibe but looking at the legs and side framing I get a later solid state vibe. hmmm.

Looks like a tubed zenith I have seen.

i vote Stromberg Carlson : )

I'd vote tubes as that tallish boxy size looks more like something that just evolved out of mono rigs. Most the SS stuff has that longer, lower look to it.

I vote toobs. Boy you really have the bug bad.....

:lmao:
These things just keep popping up everywhere. Last year, I hardly saw any...was short on $$$ as well. Now I've been jumping on every opportunity. Ain't no cure for "the bug"

Looks like a VM.

It was a VM. And it had tubes...all 8 of them....small trannie....single ended...6CU5 outputs....ten inch woofers...at $25, left it for somebody else. I bought a Fisher 115 music center and XP66K speakers instead for $10.

I am still rfurbing a VM console pull. Not sure I could have left it at $25. But my WAF would have gone way down. That is an interesting output tube they seem to go cheap for NOS. Anyone have any experience with them?

I just replaced 3 filter cans in an amp on one. It is a model #582 with 1200 series record changer.
I got a new cartridge here and they have many parts for VM if you need anything.

I have a 581 console pull. If I am correct, the 581s and 582s are the same as the 1404 stand-alone amp without the metal case. (4 x 6AQ5 pp).

Space was also a concern. I already have two Magnavox consoles and a whole lot of other stuff. Need to reserve money for the higher-end consoles I come across. Also there was no line input of any kind, which would mean I could only play records on that console, no tapes, cds, downloaded tracks, etc. I have many more CDs and MP3s than vinyl right now.

It don't sound bad either imho.
When I got it it was not working and I discovered 4 resistors (220K) were bad. Replaced them and it worked but I wanted to replace the caps for good measure.
It was somewhat of a pia for a tube rookie as myself.

I am gonna put it back in console and use some speakers I have on hand since mine came without the speaker cabinets..

There's lots pics I posted too btw.
